FOCUS-1 is the first smart meter valve specifically developed for the process industry 4.0. This multifunctional smart flow control instrument – developed by FOCUS-ON, a SAMSON and KROHNE company – combines sensors, actuator and control functionality in one device. By measuring flow, pressure and temperature simultaneously and regulating its valve function independently, all specified set points can be accurately and reliably achieved. In this way, the device acts as an autonomous actuator for decentralised control tasks.

Inlets and outlets for flow measurements remain a hot issue: many applications do not offer the appropriate installation conditions to maintain the recommended or required straight inlet and outlet runs. KROHNE presents the appropriate "0D/0D portfolio" for this purpose, consisting of the WATERFLUX water meter, the OPTIFLUX for wastewater, and the AF-E 400 for auxiliary and supply circuits, which can be used without straight inlet and outlet sections.

KROHNE introduces OPTIBRIDGE 3880 IIoT data logger for remote data services, acquisition and evaluation. It is a fully autonomous, battery or mains powered wireless communication system for remote access to measurement data, aimed at the water & wastewater industry.

Using mobile communication via 2G, 3G and 4G, OPTIBRIDGE 3880 offers a wide range of remote data management options – from simple data logging to internet connectivity and storage for maintenance, process visualisation and data evaluation. It is thus also designed for advanced applications with IIoT (Industrial Internet of Things) requirements, offering flexible and modular solutions for data acquisition and analysis in smart networks.

The IIoT (Industrial Internet of Things) is the driver for the Process Industry 4.0. It links the process, its sensors and actuators to the automation and IT systems. This opens up unimagined insights and diverse possibilities for process optimisation. To exploit these possibilities, KROHNE relies on standardised, open interfaces. Using a live demonstrator, our experts will show you examples from the areas of Ethernet-APL, OT/IT Bridge as well as cloud-based software solutions.
